The xf86-video-ati 7.6.0 release supports xserver versions 1.8-1.18. New features in this release: * DRI3 and Present extension support, allowing more efficient and secure OpenGL compositing * Option "TearFree" [0] to eliminate tearing (currently only effective for non-rotated outputs) * Option "ShadowPrimary" [0] which may deliver better performance for some 2D use

This is the initial release of the xf86-video-amdgpu driver. It was forked from the xf86-video-ati radeon driver and modified to support the amdgpu kernel driver via libdrm_amdgpu, and by extension the latest AMD GPU families Tonga, Carrizo, Iceland, Fiji and Stoney. Some functionality was removed because it's not relevant for the GPUs supported by the amdgpu kernel driver, but other than

X-Server versions older than 1.16.3 have bugs in their DRI3/Present implementation which impair nouveau, so it is better to stick to good old DRI2 by default on such servers. E.g., page flipping doesn't work at all under DRI3/Present with older servers, and use of extensions like OML_sync_control, SGI_video_sync or INTEL_swap_events also causes failure of Present. nouveau's glamor accel

That would be great, as long as it does only that and does not go into the "drivername" territory. As the said driver ;-) "A driver name to use can be provided instead of simple boolean value, which will be passed to the GL implementation for it to load the appropriate backend." -Emil On 4 July 2015 at 18:17, Ilia Mirkin <imirkin at alum.mit.edu> wrote: > IMO

The DRI option with the intel ddx can be used to indicate the following - whether dri is disabled - the dri "version" - dri1, dri2, dri3 - the dri module name - doo_dri.so bar_dri.so I'm not sure how exactly it's supposed to work/works, and I believe most of that is due to legacy reasons. I'm just saying let's not do the whole thing - just the dri "version"

Here's 1.19-RC2, which should be pretty close to 1.19.

I think we're ready for RC1 at this point, but wanted to give people a chance to scream about "just one more API change" until tomorrow. Let me know if there's something I'm missing; if I don't hear anything, I'll be tagging RC1 in the morning.

Ben, Looks like the reality is that glamor is just not hooked up properly in the nouveau DDX. Mainly it's missing DRI2, which in turn means no core GL contexts, and probably lots of other issues. While this could probably be fixed somehow, I doubt there's any advantage to using the nouveau DDX over something like modesetting nowadays. How would you feel about dropping glamor support from

A big pile of updates in this one. Highlights include: - glamor is updated to use OpenGL core profiles if available, which should improve memory usage and performance on modern hardware, and got some other performance improvements for rpi and other GLES platforms - DRI2, DRI3, and Present all received correctness fixes for hangs, crashes, and other weirdness - Xwayland server has been updated

I'm pleased to announce the 18.0.0 release of xf86-video-ati, the Xorg driver for ATI/AMD Radeon GPUs supported by the radeon kernel driver. This release supports xserver versions 1.13-1.19. It also works with xserver 1.20 RC1, so unless something unexpected happens, it should work with xserver 1.20 as well. Highlights: * New year-based versioning scheme * Page flipping can now be used even

Various bugfixes across the board.  The most visible changes include fixing GLX extension setup under Xwayland and other non-Xorg servers (enabling core contexts in more scenarios), and various stability fixes to glamor and the Present extension.  Full change list: Aaron Plattner (1):       privates: Clear screen-specific keys during CloseScreen Adam Jackson (9):       fb: Make rootless-agnostic

Here's 1.18 RC1. Let's figure out when to release this during XDC.
